    College World Series

    Yeah, the Friday night games were a struggle bus for us (at least from a pitching standpoint) in the early goings of conference season. We've definitely settled into more of a rhythm. Not to beat a dead horse, but to put those stats up after losing our ace is really crazy. Tony Vitello is just...

    College World Series

    LOL. Ole Miss won the whole damn thing in 2022. We didn't make it out of the super regional. They were the last team selected and we had one of the most talented teams on both sides of the ball in recent memory. It's impossible to predict what's going to happen.

    #1

    This is what I was trying to communicate to everyone yesterday. There was a lot of teeth gnashing about Lipscomb, and yes it was unfortunate to lose that game, but even the 2022 team lost a midweek to Tennessee Tech. Those losses almost never have any connection to a team's true potential or...

    Tennessee or Arkansas as No. 1 tomorrow?

    We haven’t lost an SEC series since playing Alabama in Tuscaloosa—that’s (I believe) seven in a row. A&M just lost 2/3 to a team we swept (though we did play them at home and they played them on the road). Arkansas lost 2/3 in Lexington and we were a shoddy inning away from winning all three in...

    The Official Tennessee @ Florida Series Thread (Fri. May 3rd Game 1 3PM EST, Game 2 after SECNET+) (Sat. May 4th 6:30PM EST SECNET+)

    I think some of you put way too much stock in these midweek games. It became somewhat problematic for a team like Florida early in the season because they seemingly lost ALL of them, but if you recall, they stayed in the top 10 for a while because they kept winning their weekend series. Only...

    I will be very, very surprised if this happens. Kendall Rogers already confirmed that A&M won’t be #1 in D1’s rankings tomorrow. He tagged the Arkansas and Tennessee team accounts to get the discussion going, meaning both are being considered. We are constantly told that midweek games don’t...

    And yet two of their three wins are against Tennessee and Arkansas. Funny how things work sometimes. And I agree that saying we’re co-champions wouldn’t be ideal, but we’d be the 1 seed, and those mouth breathers would know our team came to Lexington and stole their lunch money. Plus...

    You really never know. Neither Vandy nor Florida is lighting the world on fire this year, but Kentucky could easily lose a game in each of those series. That's just how SEC baseball works. Besides, do we not hold the tiebreaker over Kentucky thanks to our head-to-head win?

    Well, shoot. Be interesting to see if we'll get bumped up to #1 tomorrow. Not sure I want any part of that. 😄

    What are your thoughts on Aidoo probably going to Arkansas?

    I think it's a bad look when grown men overreact to stuff like this. I was surprised at how it ended here, but I wish him all the luck moving forward. Our coach probably feels the same way.

    Yeah, and the minute you feel sorry for them, take a gander at any of their message boards. We play with illegal bats, Tennessee fans are stupid hillbillies, Tony Vitello is an a**hole, etc. I'm almost certain they think Tim Corbin invented the game of baseball. Case in point, a post from their...

    Lots of consternation in Nashville about the state of Vanderbilt baseball. They've obviously still got a pretty good team, but it seems a growing portion of their fan base is kinda sorta wondering if Corbin can keep up with the rest of the league. No doubt the fact that their hated rival is...

    Cats lose again !

    I know small ball is a legit way to play, but seeing them bunt all the time does make me clench my fists a bit. Annoying as hell. And yep, crazy what can happen in a week. Before our series with them, we were 4 games back. After tonight, we're just 1.5 games back. Kentucky and especially...
